Okay I'll bite. My aquapod doesn't have the stock hood so I don't know how much room should be there, but from what I've gathered, it will be similar if not, the same. When you get your tank, make sure there's no cracks or damage to it during shipping, and be prepared for that to happen...

So my stuff came today... had about 5 packages delivered, 4 which were the aquarium supplies. Very excited - I still ahve one more shipment coming this Friday. Today I got the maxijet 1200, koralia nano, the stealth heater, and my sunpod 150w! Here's the heartbreaker -- My aquapod came...

Yeah, I kind of splurged on my savings this christmas season, treating myself to a little project. I acutally didn't get the API carbon. I ended up getting seachem purigen for the mechanical filtering part. I also got a 50lb bag of Tropic Marine Seaslt because I heard great reviews from it...

Also, I am giong to use one of the chambers for filler floss on top of carbon (probably Aquarium Pharmaceuticals Activated Filter Carbon). I will probably keep them in the filter fine mesh bags -- anyone have experience with these? Do you just use one and throw it out after? P.S. How do we...

Thanks Cris, I need an emergency "look over" on some certain things. For some reason I have been missing important facts that I have caught gists of here and there, and just need some quick clarifications. I bought a test kit only for pH, I also need it for cal and alk, correct? If so I...

GREAT read. Thanks for the info... I love the pictures in them. I know I'll be spending a lot of time on those last two links especially. Estimated on arrival is Monday the RO/DI tank (Mighty Mite - $100) Tuesday - Aquapod 24g Stand, Stealth Heater, PH testing kit Wednesday - Koralia...

It's soap dish that hangs in the main tank with macro algae basically. I probably will put it in the chambers actually and just get a light for it. Or maybe not get it at all at least until down the line. For my 24g, how many lbs of LR do you suggest? I was thinking about 25, but the LFS...

actually scratch that, i bought a 24g 150w HQI on the way :D

Well the aquapod 24 come with a 70w HQI. Can I just do one of those hang on wall soap dish thingies with the macro in it? I could just use the light from there. Awesomeness :D

Hmm, I see. So what I plan on doing is making 3-4 chambers. One of them I will probably steal the idea of Cobra and H20 with the filler floss. That seems like a very good idea. And another I will put LR rubble and possibly just have some macro algae in another for extra filtration. I...

another question as I am diong research -- Would a buble tip anemone thrive in a 24 Aquapod with 70w HQI??

I was actually considering moving up to a 24 aqua pod, or get the 29 biocube. I am still VERY confused as to what a refuge, or sump REALLY does. It's to keep invertebrates away from danger - okay.. for what? I know it's probably a very obvious answer, but I am again very unsure about many...

Okay, well I plan on buying an upgraded filter. The light I will also probably keep, although I am still considering upgrading that, if I want to stray from softies that is. So far my shopping list will be: the tank itself about 15-16lbs of LR//about the same amount in LS if not less A...

Can you help me with some Mods? I am having trouble looking for such information. The 14g Biocube will be stock, but I heard that you can/should make mods to things such as the filter, and light. I plan on using LR, and anemones, and shrooms. I am going to take this slow, and I want to...

As this is my first post, I would like to say hi to everyone and comment on how helpful this site has been for the past couple of hours. It already seems as if it is already too much to absorb. I am looking into the 14gallon Biocube nano tank. I have very little experience with fish, but I...
